Cincinnati City Manager Annual Performance Review (3.9.26)
The city council’s evaluation of the city manager’s performance was added to the agenda 30 minutes before today’s (3.9.26) meeting of the Budget, Finance and Governance Committee.
The following related documents have been posted below.
- The city council’s process (1.20.26)
- The city manager’s 34-page power point presentation about her performance – essentially her self-assessment. ( 12.9.25)
- The city council’s 11-page review memo (Undated, presented at budget committee meeting on 3.9.26).
One thing noticeably missing. A key part of performance managment is communicating performance expectations at the outset of the performance period. For example, what performance metrics will be used to actually measure the city manager’s individual performance? If that happened here, I have not found where it was documented.
As it is, let’s just say, the city council members are not tough graders.
